DIA to Double Number of Its Electric Vehicle Charging Stations Ten new electric vehicle charging stations will be installed this fall in the west parking garage, doubling the number of DIA's charging stations, which are free to customers who pay to park in a garage. The new stations will have the airport's first AC Level 2 chargers and are compatible with most electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles. The project will bring DIA's number of publicly available vehicle charging stations to 20. AC Level 2 charges use 240-volt infrastructure and provide up to 20 miles of range per hour of charge time, according to U.S. Department of Energy estimates. The project is partially funded using a grant awarded to DIA from the Charge Ahead Colorado Electric Vehicle and Charging Station grant fund, a program of the Regional Air Quality Council and the Colorado Energy Office. The grant will pay for $32,600 of the estimated $85,000 project. DIA installed five electric vehicle charging stations in both the east and west parking garages in late 2013. Those 10 AC Level 1 stations use 120-volt infrastructure that provides up to five miles of range per hour of charging time. http://business.flydenver.com/info/news/publications/wingtips/2015AprLarge.html[4/27/2015 3:56:54 PM] WingTips April 2015 Great Men and Women of Aviation Bessie Coleman Bessie Coleman, was the first African American woman, and most likely the first black woman in the world, to earn a pilot's license. National Air and Space Museum Archives, Smithsonian Institution. SI 88-7993. As a manicurist at White Sox Barber Shop in Chicago, Bessie Coleman was fascinated when people told her stories about pilots' experiences flying during World War I, and she soon wanted to fly herself. Realizing that she had no chance to get into any American flight schools because of her race, she moved to France, where she could enroll in a flight school. By 1921, Coleman was learning to fly a Nieuport Type 82 biplane. Just six months after she started training, Coleman received an international aviation license from the Fédération Aéronatique Internationale, becoming the first African American woman (and probably the first black woman in the world) to receive a pilot's license. http://business.flydenver.com/info/news/publications/wingtips/2015AprLarge.html[4/27/2015 3:56:54 PM] WingTips April 2015 Upon Coleman's return to the United States in 1922, The New York Times covered her arrival, reporting: "Termed by leading French and Dutch aviators one of the best flyers they had seen, Miss Bessie Coleman, said to be the only negro aviatrix in the world, returned from Europe yesterday to give a series of exhibitions in this country. ." Coleman toured the country, flying in airshows and earning money to buy her own planes. She refused to perform unless the audiences were desegregated and everyone attending used the same entrance gates. Unfortunately, Coleman was never able to accomplish her dream of launching a flight school for black students. In Jacksonville, Fla., on the evening of April 30, 1926, Coleman and her mechanic took her newly purchased Curtiss "Jenny" airplane for a test flight ahead of an exhibition scheduled for the next day. The aircraft malfunctioned, and the mechanic, who was piloting the plane, lost control. The aircraft rolled and Coleman fell out of an open cockpit and was killed after falling several hundred feet.

    Served: May 12, 2020 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. CONTINUATION OF CERTAIN AIR SERVICE PURSUANT TO PUBLIC LAW NO. 116-136 §§ 4005 AND 4114(b) Docket DOT-OST-2020-0037 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS TO SERVICE OBLIGATIONS Summary By this notice, the U.S. Department of Transportation (the Department) announces an opportunity for incremental adjustments to service obligations under Order 2020-4-2, issued April 7, 2020, in light of ongoing challenges faced by U.S. airlines due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) public health emergency. With this notice as the initial step, the Department will use a systematic process to allow covered carriers1 to reduce the number of points they must serve as a proportion of their total service obligation, subject to certain restrictions explained below.2 Covered carriers must submit prioritized lists of points to which they wish to suspend service no later than 5:00 PM (EDT), May 18, 2020. DOT will adjudicate these requests simultaneously and publish its tentative decisions for public comment before finalizing the point exemptions. As explained further below, every community that was served by a covered carrier prior to March 1, 2020, will continue to receive service from at least one covered carrier. The exemption process in Order 2020-4-2 will continue to be available to air carriers to address other facts and circumstances. Background On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Recovery, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) into law. Sections 4005 and 4114(b) of the CARES Act authorize the Secretary to require, “to the extent reasonable and practicable,” an air carrier receiving financial assistance under the Act to maintain scheduled air transportation service as the Secretary deems necessary to ensure services to any point served by that air carrier before March 1, 2020.

    Trends and Market Forces Shaping Small Community Air Service in the United States Michael D. Wittman MIT International Center for Air Transportation William S. Swelbar MIT International Center for Air Transportation Report No. ICAT-2013-02 MIT Small Community Air Service White Paper No. 1 May 2013 1 Introduction to paper series This report, Trends and Market Forces Shaping Small Community Air Service in the United States, is the first in a series of papers written under the umbrella of the MIT Small Community Air Service White Paper series. The aim of the paper series is to examine and analyze the past, current, and anticipated future trends of small community air service in the United States. The series is intended for a general audience of airline and airport executives, aviation policy makers, the news media, and anyone with an interest in the availability of commercial air service at the nation’s smaller airports. The authors of this paper series hope that these reports will serve to inform the policy debate with relevant and accurate statistical analysis, such that those responsible for deciding the future of small community air service will do so armed with factual basis for their actions. The authors of the MIT Small Community Air Service White Paper series are members of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s International Center for Air Transportation, one of the nation’s premier centers for aviation, airline, and airport research. Financial support for study authors has been provided in part by the MIT Airline Industry Consortium, an interdisciplinary group of airlines, airport councils, policy makers, and advocacy groups dedicated to improving the state of the practice of air transportation research in the United States.

  • National Transportation Safety Board Aviation Accident Final Report
    National Transportation Safety Board Aviation Accident Final Report Location: Moab, UT Accident Number: WPR17FA035 Date & Time: 12/12/2016, 0537 MST Registration: N772RT QUEST AIRCRAFT COMPANY LLC Aircraft: Aircraft Damage: Destroyed KODIAK 100 Defining Event: Loss of control in flight Injuries: 1 Fatal Flight Conducted Under: Part 135: Air Taxi & Commuter - Non-scheduled Analysis The commercial pilot was departing on a routine positioning flight in dark night visual meteorological conditions. Footage from a security camera at the airport showed the airplane take off normally and initiate a right turn, which was the established direction of traffic for the takeoff runway. The airplane continued the right turn, then entered an increasingly rapid descent and subsequently impacted terrain about 1 mile southwest from the airport. The wreckage distribution was consistent with a high-energy impact. Examination of the airframe and engine revealed no evidence of any preimpact mechanical malfunctions or anomalies that would have precluded normal operation. Autopsy and toxicology testing of the pilot did not reveal any evidence of impairment or incapacitation. Visual conditions prevailed in the area at the time of the accident; however, the setting Moon was obscured by cloud cover, and the airport was located in an area of remote, sparsely-populated high desert terrain. This would have resulted in few visual references to which the pilot could have oriented the airplane. Although the pilot had experience operating in this environment in night conditions and held an instrument rating, the circumstances of the accident are consistent with the known effects of spatial disorientation. The investigation could not determine the initiating event which led to the pilot's mismatch between the airplane's perceived and actual attitude; however, he likely experienced a sensory illusion as a result of spatial disorientation, which led to a loss of control.
